Our relationship with the #Philippines is one of the most important in a world shaped by US-China rivalry. President Marcos's visit and meeting with @Potus can help strengthen and consolidate relations, especially if on top of increased military ties, there is a good trade…

له #ایران څخه ایستل شوې او افغانستان ته ستنه شوې افغانې نجلۍ سره په دري ژبه د @TOLOnews ډیره پیاوړې او زړه راښکونکې مرکه. غواړم چې ټول، په ځانګړې توګه ایرانیان او افغانان، دا مرکه وګوري. طالبان باید داسې بااستعداده او فصیحه ځوانه وګړې د زدو کړې له حق څخه محرومه نه کړي - فکر وکړئ…
یک مصاحبهی قدرتمند و تأثیرگذار از طلوعنیوز @TOLOnews (به زبان فارسی/دری با زیرنویس انگلیسی) با دختری جوان که از ایران اخراج شده و به افغانستان بازگشته است. دوست دارم همه، بهویژه ایرانیها و افغانها، این مصاحبه را ببینند. طالبان نباید حق تحصیل را از چنین دختر باهوش و خوش…
A powerful and moving interview by @TOLOnews (in Farsi/Dari with English subtitles) with a young girl returnee expelled from #Iran. I would like everyone, especially Iranians and Afghans, to watch it. The Taliban should not deprive such a bright, articulate young citizen of her…
Is Israel supporting criminal gangs in Gaza? If it is, it is making a mistake as it will backfire. #USA @SecStateMarco47 x.com/checkptcheryl/…
Has the West learned NOTHING? Playing games with extremists, backing them for some supposedly clever tactical reasons, leads inevitably to disaster. The Taliban, Al Qaeda, even Hamas, all of them were encouraged and empowered by Western governments short-sighted strategies. Now,…

A positive development: a ceasefire/peace agreement in Congo brokered by #Qatar. youtube.com/live/vfHCuDSNC… youtu.be/SNkt76BHxM8?si…
A positive development in #Iraq: after many years, the Mosul international airport has been reopened by Prime Minister Sudani. Mosul is a historic city with huge achievements but has suffered in recent years.
Based on today's statements in the @UN Security Council, the members unanimously oppose the fragmentation of Syria. The Syrians have a historic opportunity to have peace and progress. The neighbors should assist #Syria to succeed, not the opposit.
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. (Lao Tzu). The trilateral meeting of the foreign ministers of #Afghanistan, #Pakistan, and #Uzbekistan in Kabul and the signing of a Framework Agreement on the Joint Feasibility for Uzbek-Afghan-Pakistan (UAP) Railway…
I am pleased that these Pakistani soldiers and policemen were not harmed. However, this episode is another indicator of the growing insurgency and terror in #Pakistan, particularly in #Baluchistan. x.com/OsintUpdates/s…

#ایران په بې رحمۍ افغان کډوال اخراجوي. تر نیم ملیونو ډیر کډوال په ډیره لنډه موده کې ایستل شوي دي. حکومت، سوداګر او سیمه ییز مشران د راستنېدونکو کډوالو د بشري اړتیاوو او لیږد په برخه کې خورا ښه مرسته کوي. په حقیقت کې، د دوی ونډه ډیره اغیزمنه ده، خصوصا پداسې حال کې چې افغانستان له…
#ایران با بیرحمی پناهندگان افغان را اخراج می کند. بیش از نیم میلیون مهاجر در مدت زمان بسیار کوتاهی از مرز رانده شدهاند. دولت، بازرگانان و رهبران محلی در کمک به نیازمندیهای بشردوستانه و انتقال بازگشتکنندگان کار بسیار خوبی انجام دادهاند. در واقع، بسیار موثر بوده است، بالخصوص با…
